[phenixbb] Fwd: ML with Twinning?

Hello,
please allow me to use this prompt for my twinning-related question.
A recent version of xtriage prints this warning:

It might be worthwhile carrying out refinement with a twin specific target
function.
Please note however that R-factors from twinned refinement cannot be
directly
compared to R-factors without twinning, as they will always be lower when a
twin law is used. You should also use caution when interpreting the maps
from
refinement, as they will have significantly more model bias.

Consider a case where specification of a twin law produces a “significant”
reduction in the residuals, say between 5 and 10%-points. Maps have not
revealed any additional features or model errors. Model geometry (such as
fraction of residues in favored regions of the Ramachandran plot) has not
improved. Should I specify the twin target during refinement?
How do my colleagues decide when to use twin refinement?
Best regards.

Hi Jacob,

Is Phenix able yet to use the ML target function with twinned data?
>
no.

Is it in the works?

There are formulas written out:

“Maximum likelihood refinement for twinned structures”:

some one needs to code it.
